| Got to be the WORST burner I have ever dealt with. Can't do any decent burns with this thing. Tried all available firmwares (including those from the Samsung TS-L532A A94 firmware which was more recent but worse) and all burns had unreadable sectors in the scandisk (except one). Writing is very unstable in Nero CD-DVD Speed testing. Have a look: Ritek G05 8X DVD-R (Unreadable):http://tinypic.com/ma9ukj.jpg CMC E01 8X DVD+R (4X): http://tinypic.com/ma9veo.jpg & http://tinypic.com/ma9x1s.jpg & http://tinypic.com/ma9xyf.jpg CMC E01 8X DVD+R (8X): http://tinypic.com/ma9xdd.jpg & http://tinypic.com/ma9xqd.jpg & http://tinypic.com/ma9y7o.jpg Taiyo Yuden T02 DVD+R 8X: http://tinypic.com/maa0cy.jpg & http://tinypic.com/maa0k3.jpg & http://tinypic.com/maa0pz.jpg Taiyo Yuden T02 DVD+R 8X (4X): http://tinypic.com/maa15c.jpg & http://tinypic.com/maa1ef.jpg Even the Taiyo Yudens weren't perfect and that's hard for a burner to do! This burner has some sort of laser calibration scheme (as per Toshiba's specs) and this would probably explain the dips in the burn curve and speed. You can even see the rings on most of these. Don't waste your money on this thing. Comments posted by Mooseman from Canada, January 21, 2006. Rated this writer 1 of 10. |

| Had this drive for 4 months, done a lot of burns at 8x on both + and - media. No problems at all. Mainly been using taiyo yuden and cmc magnetics disks. Done a few +r dual layer burns, again with no problems. Easy to install and easy to upgrade the firmware. Excellent ripping speed as well. Comments posted by Hoeplugger from Australia, May 16, 2005.

| I have just installed this drive in my Toshiba laptop. It seems a very decent drive, the install was very simple: 1. remove 2 screws 2. slide out old drive 3. remove bracket 4. put bracket on DVD writer 5. slide in DVD writer 6. replace 2 screws Caveat: I have only tested the drive with very crappy Memorex 4x DVD-Rs so far, writing under Linux using dvdrwtools. I had to write at 1x with these disks and I had to write at 1x on another writer too. I got these disks a year ago on sale. I just noticed one of these disks has air bubbles inside the plastic. Yay, Memorex! Comments posted by plinius from United States, April 04, 2005. Rated this writer 9 of 10. |

| I have had this burner in my Laptop (HP ze5385) for about a week now and it works fine. Heating seems to be a problem becuase after burning 3 or 4 discs it really starts to heat up the laptop to the point of crashing. But otherwise a good burning and a good deal.

| I have one in my Asus W1747 notebook. Couldn't deal with dvd-r's faster than 4x speed. After upgrading firmware everything's well! Comments posted by Frank from Netherlands, December 21, 2004. Rated this writer 7 of 10. |
